Nature Connections
During this “Summer in the Smokies”, Anakeesta will be featuring Artist Sean Kenney’s Nature Concepts. This collection of sculptures built solely from LEGO bricks will have you snapping pictures, asking, “how does he do that”, and wondering if you had enough bricks, could you do that.
These amazing works of art are fun for the whole family and will get your imagination racing for days to come. Filled with beautiful insects and nature, the colors and the wonderment of how a simple brick could create such beauty, is here waiting for you.
Toe-Tapping, Music
During these times of festive fun, Anakeesta will also be featuring the very best in live music at Black Bear Village. Take the time to sit back, or even dance like no one is looking, and enjoy a variety of music as it echoes throughout the villages. Family-fun music is the perfect backdrop to all the sights that Anakeesta has to offer.
Take a moment to enjoy some food and drinks, or just rest your feet as the sweet melodies of each band play away. Let your ears enjoy the moment. All of these can be accomplished while your kids play away and cool off in the Splash Pad.

There will be drinks for the adults and the kids, so no one will miss out on the flavor adventure.
